As you may already know, in accordance with the latest recommendations from the Australian Dental Association, and to assist in maintaining the safety of our patients and staff, we have deferred all routine dental treatments and restricting appointments to emergencies and the treatment of pain only (level 3 restrictions).
In light of this, in conjunction with Smile Docs®, we will publishing a series of articles called: “What Can You Do When You Can’t Get To See The Dentist”.
Okay, let’s begin…
What To Do If Your Dental Crown Comes Off?
Today, I want to discuss what to do if your Dental Crown comes off.
The best place to start is to clean the crown by using your toothpaste and toothbrush (if it looks hollow then it’s good news).
Next step is to disinfect it with some alcohol and store it in a container or a resealable bag.
Give us a call and we might be able to cemented back.
If you can’t get to us then you might be able to seat it back using temporary cement like Denta-Fix Cement which is readily available from any pharmacy. Before you do that, consider doing the following:
Check that the crown is sitting ok and remember the way it is fitting
Put some cement material then seat it and bite on until set.
Try and avoid using that tooth until you can come and see us.

First of all thank you for being or loyal patients at justSMILE, I wanted to write to you as we are going through these tough times with the corona virus situations. As of now we are on level 3 which restricts dental treatments to emergencies and relief of pain, so I wanted to go over few scenarios of what to do if you can’t get to see us.
As such, in accordance with the latest recommendations from the Australian Dental Association, and to assist in maintaining the safety of our patients and staff, we will now be deferring all routine dental treatments and restricting appointments to urgent treatment and emergencies dental procedures only.
The ADA defines this as…
New or recent swelling of your gums or face (within the past three to seven days).
Severe toothache pain (on a pain scale of 1-10, a 5 or more that has lasted more than 24 hours).
Tooth infection.
Bleeding in your mouth that does not stop following tooth extraction or gum surgery.
Recent trauma, such as broken tooth causing pain.
Emergency Dentistry When You Need It Most:
The last few days have been spent modifying our dental practices to be able to still answer or return your phone calls with good advice and reassurance. We are also working hard to ensure that we can work remotely.
On the most serious of dental emergencies, we may still see you. However, our number one priority is of course to ensure your and our staff safety during such procedures. Please continue to call us, email us or use our online scheduling tool for any dental queries. We will endeavour to get back to you as soon as possible.

On the side, in conjunction with Smile Docs®, we are also working on and will publish a series of new articles called: “What Can You Do When You Can’t Get To See The Dentist”.
